Dear parents,
We have recently received our new prices from our current catering providers, Gateshead Council Schools Catering Service.
Due to rising food and labour costs, they have increased the lunch meal price across all schools.
Even with our school subsidising costs, we will still need to increase the cost per meal for parents to from £3.00 to £3.10 . The new meal price of £3.10 will be in place in the Summer Term when we return after our Easter break. We have amended Parentpay so charges will reflect this from Monday 13th April.
We will continue to work with Schools Catering to try and keep costs down, whilst ensuring a high quality meal will be provided to each of our students. We will do everything we can to keep the price of school meals affordable for all families.
